The haiku is a beautiful poetical form originating in Japan.  Poets such as Buson and Basho mastered the craft of explaining feeling and existence into a few words.   The goal for me is to explore this poetical form, to attempt to write at least 50 haiku's, and through that way connect with an ancient and beautiful art form.  The typical form for the haiku is the first line is five syllables, the second line is seven, and the third is five again.

not much stays the same

alone to lead a quite life
searching for wisdom

rarely waking up
